Stem cells are the cells having some distinguishing characteristics like longevity, high capacity of self-renewal and differentiation, quiescence and highly error-free proliferation. Almost all stem cells have the potential of lineage reprogramming, i.e. inter-conversion of cell lineages. They also have the potential to differentiate into almost all kinds of cells. These cells have been found in almost every organs of human body. Pool of stem cells found in epidermis is termed as Epidermal Stem Cells (Blanpain and Fuchs, 2006).
